On Oct. 21, the Grange gave a party and dinner for the Arc Group Homes in Lexington. I don't know who enjoyed it the most, the guests or out Grange children. About 15 young people along with the adults made the event possible.Over the years, the Grange members have made friends with this group and they really seem like part of the Grange family. They appreciate so much the things that we do for them. Think about the following words for a minute.I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellowman, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again. The Grange is planning a fundraiser on Nov. 16. More details about this will be in the next column, but go ahead and mark that date on your calendar. We will be raising money for the kids to go to camp. We also hope to have a silent auction at that time.
